Various process used to form a micro-chip that will packaged into an integrated circuit (IC) fall in four general categories, namely, film deposition, removal/etching, semiconductor doping and patterning/lithography. Deposition is any process that grows, coats, or otherwise transfers a material onto the wafer. Available technologies include physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), electrochemical deposition (ECD), molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), and more recently, atomic layer deposition (ALD) among others. Removal/etching is any process that removes material from the wafer. Examples include etching process (either wet or dry), reactive ion etching (RIE), and chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP), and the like. Semiconductor doping is the modification of electrical properties by doping, for example, transistor sources and drains, generally by diffusion and/or by ion implantation. These doping processes are followed by furnace annealing or by rapid thermal annealing (RTA). Annealing serves to activate the implant dopants. Films of both conductors (e.g., aluminum, copper, etc.) and insulators (e.g., various forms of silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, etc.) are used to connect and isolate electrical components. Selective doping of various regions of the semiconductor substrate allows the conductivity of the substrate to be changed with the application of voltage.

Reference will now be made in detail to the embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout. This application is directed to a method of concurrently forming multiple devices on the same substrate and the structure of the different devices on the substrate. The devices will be formed at the same time on different regions on the substrate. For example, the different devices can be a bottom dielectric isolated (BDI) nanosheet, an electrostatic discharge device, and a fin device. The starting substrate can be, for example, a Si wafer, a quartz wafer, a Sapphire wafer, metal line, or another layer that is suitable for being the starting layer for the formation of the multiple devices. The substrate is separated into a plurality of separate regions for processing, but the substrate remains physically whole, i.e., the substrate is not physically cut. A device will be concurrently formed in each of the separate regions, where the formed devices can be the same device or different devices. The locations of each of the plurality of separate regions can be adjacent to each other on the substrate or the locations of each of the plurality of separate regions can be spaced apart from each other to allow for the formation of other devices or lines on the substrate. The height of one of the finished devices can be different from the height of another of the finished devices, or the height of one of the finished devices can be substantially the same as the height of another of the finished devices, or a combination thereof.

FIGS. 1A, 1B, and 1C illustrates a cross sections 100 of different regions on the same substrate 105, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The substrate 105 can be, for example, a Si wafer, a Sapphire wafer, a metal layer, a non-metal layer, or any type of material that the multiple devices can be formed on. The substrate 105 is divided up into a plurality of separate regions for processing, e.g., each separate region will have a device formed thereon. The substrate 105 remains physically one-piece during processing, i.e., the substrate 105 is not physically separated into multiple substrates 105. FIG. 1A illustrates a first region on substrate 105, FIG. 1B illustrate a second region on substrate 105, and FIG. 1C illustrates a third region on substrate 105. The plurality of separate regions can be adjacent to another region of the plurality of separate regions, or the plurality of separate regions can be spaced apart from the other plurality of separate regions. For example, the 1^(st) region can be adjacent to the 2^(nd) region, but spaced apart from the 3^(rd) region, or the 1^(st) region can be adjacent to both the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) regions, or the 1^(st) region can be adjacent to the 3^(rd) region, but spaced apart from the 2^(nd) region, or the 1^(st) region can be spaced apart from the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) regions, while the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) regions are adjacent to each other, or the 1^(st) region, the 2^(nd) region, and the 3^(rd) region can be spaced apart from each other, or any combination thereof. FIG. 1B illustrates the substrate 105 was doped with different materials to change the properties of the substrate 105 in the 2^(nd) region. For example, 2^(nd) region is doped to have a P-sub, N-well, N+, and P+ regions for a formation of an electrostatic discharge device. FIG. 1B illustrates that the substrate 105 can undergo processing prior to the formation of any layers on top of the substrate 105.

FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C illustrates a cross section of the different regions for the formation of a different device at each region, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C show the 1^(st) region, 2^(nd) region, and the 3^(rd) region of the substrate 105. A plurality of layers is formed on the surface of the substrate 105. The first layer 110 is formed directly on the substrate 105. The first layer 110 can be formed by, for example, by epitaxially growing the first layer layer 110 on the substrate 105. The first layer 110 can serve a different purpose in different regions. For example, the first layer 110 can be used as a placeholder material in one region and the first layer 110 can be a sacrificial protective layer in another region. The first layer 110 can be comprised of SiGe with the germanium content ranging from 50% to 70%. The percentage amount of Ge in layer 110 is not a set factor, there just needs to be a difference in the percentage amount between the first layer 110 and the second layer 115 (also the fourth layer 116 and the sixth layer 117). The second layer 115 is formed directly on the first layer 110. The second layer 115 can by epitaxially growing the second layer 115 on the first layer 110. The second layer 115 can be comprised of SiGe with the germanium content ranging from 15% to 35%. The difference in the percentages between the first layer 110 and the second layer 115 (also the fourth layer 116 and the sixth layer 117) affects the downstream processing steps that can be applied to the different regions. The difference in the percentages of Ge in the first layer 110 and the second layer 115 (also the fourth layer 116 and the sixth layer 117) needs to be large enough to differentiate between the layers during downstream processing steps. A third layer 120 is formed directly on top of the second layer 115. The third layer 120 can be for example, Si, and the third layer 120 can be formed by epitaxially growing the third layer 120 on the second layer 115. A fourth layer 116 is formed directly on top of the third layer 120. The fourth layer 116 is comprised of the same material as the second layer 115. A fifth layer 121 is formed directly on the fourth layer 116. The fifth layer 121 is comprised of the same material as the third layer 120. A sixth layer 117 is formed directly on top of the fifth layer 121. The sixth layer 117 is comprised of the same material as the second layer 115. A seventh layer 122 is formed directly on top of the sixth layer 117. The seventh layer 122 is comprised of the same material as the third layer 120. FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C illustrate only three stacks of SiGe (second layer 115, fourth layer 116, and sixth layer 117) and three stacks of Si (third layer 120, fifth layer 121, and seventh layer 122) is meant for illustrative proposes only, the number of stacks can be greater or fewer than the three stacks shown. The stack of layers as illustrate FIG. 2A can be known as a Gate-All-Around (GAA) Epitaxial stack (second layer 115, the third layer 120, the fourth layer 116, the fifth layer 121, the sixth layer 117, and the seventh layer 122). At this point in the process the 1^(st) region, 2^(nd) region, and the 3^(rd) region are treated the same way, as illustrated by FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C.

FIGS. 3A, 3B, and 3C illustrates a cross section of the different regions for the formation of a different device at each region, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. A hard mask 125 is formed directly on top of the seventh layer 122 in each of the regions. A patterning layer 130 is formed directly on top of the hard mask layer 125 in each of the regions. The patterning layer 130 can be, for example, an organic planarization layer. The patterning layer 130 allows for the patterning of each of the regions, where each of the regions can be independently patterned from each other. Thus, during an etching process each region can be treated independently from the other regions. FIG. 3A illustrates the formation of the first device in the 1^(st) region, for example, the end device can be a bottom dielectric isolation nanosheet. The patterning of the overall device allows for the multiple layers in the 1^(st) region not to be etched. As illustrated by FIGS. 3B and 3C, the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) region are etched to remove the multiple layers down to the first layer 110. The first layer 110 in the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) regions prevents damage to the substrate 105 by the etching process, since the etching process is stop prior to the reaching the underlying substrate 105.

FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 4C illustrates a cross section of the different regions for the formation of a different device at each region, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The patterning layer 130 is removed from the top of the 1^(st) region in FIG. 4A. A layer 123 is formed on top of the first layer 110 in the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) regions, as illustrated by FIGS. 4B and 4C. Layer 123 can be for example, Si, and layer 123 can be formed by epitaxially growing layer 123 on the first layer 110 in the 2^(nd) and 3^(rd) regions. The height H2 of layer 123 in the 2^(nd) region, as illustrated by FIG. 4B, is substantially equal to the height H1 in the 1^(st) region of the combined height of the second layer 115, the third layer 120, the fourth layer 116, the fifth layer 121, the sixth layer 117, and the seventh layer 122. The height H3 of the layer 123 in the 3^(rd) region, as illustrated by FIG. 4C, is substantially equal to the height H1 in the 1^(st) region of the combined height of the GAA Epitaxial stack. The height H2 of the layer 123 in the 2^(nd) region is substantially the same as the height H3 of the layer 123 in the 3^(rd) region.

FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C illustrates a cross section of the different regions for the formation of a different device at each region, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. A hard mask 125 is formed directly on top of the layer 123 on the 2^(nd) region and 3^(rd) region. The additional hard mask 125 material adds to the thickness of the hard mask 125 formed on top of the seventh layer 122 in the 1^(st) region. A patterning layer 130 is formed directly on top of the hard mask layer 125 in each of the regions. The patterning layer 130 can be, for example, an organic planarization layer. The patterning layer 130 allows for the patterning of each of the regions, where each of the regions can be independently patterned from each other. Thus, during an etching process each region can be treated independently from the other regions. The layer 123 is removed in the 2^(nd) region, as illustrated by FIG. 5B, where the first layer 110 acts as an etch stop. The first layer 110 in the 2^(nd) region protects the underlying substrate 105 from being damaged by the etching process. FIG. 5A illustrates that the 1^(st) region remains untouched by the etching process, and FIG. 5C illustrates that the 3^(rd) region remains untouched by the etching process. FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C illustrate that each region can be independently processed so that different devices can be formed in the different regions.

FIGS. 6A, 6B, and 6C illustrates a cross section of the different regions for the formation of a different device at each region, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 6A, 6B and 6C illustrate each of the regions being etched to form the devices. A hard mask 124 is formed on the top surface of each region and a pattern layer (not shown) is formed on the hard mask 125. Each region is patterned prior to the anisotropic etching process to determine the shape of the devices after the etching process. The final device determines how, and which region are to be etched. The etching process removes some of the substrate 105 in each of the regions. FIG. 6A illustrates the formation of a nanosheet device, where the width W1 of the nanosheet device can be controlled by the patterning of the hard mask 125 prior to the etching process. FIG. 6B illustrate the formation of a passive device such as an electrostatic discharge (ESD) device, where width W2 of the ESD device is controlled by the patterning of the hard mask 125 prior to the etching process. FIG. 6C illustrates the formation of fins, where the width W3 of the fins is controlled by the patterning of the hard mask 125 prior to the etching process.

FIGS. 7A, 7B, and 7C illustrates a cross section of the different regions for the formation of a different device at each region, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. A trench filler layer 135 is formed in the gaps formed in the substrate 105. The trench filler layer 135 can be, for example, a shallow trench isolation material such as an oxide. As illustrated in FIG. 7A, the trench filler layer 135 fills the gaps on substrate 105 on both sides of the pillar, where the height of the trench filler layer 135 reaches to about the bottom of the first layer 110. As illustrated in FIG. 7B, the trench filler layer 135 fills the gaps on substrate 105 around the columns created in the substrate 105, where the height of the trench filler layer 135 reaches to about the bottom of the first layer 110. As illustrated in FIG. 7C, the trench filler layer 135 fills the gaps on substrate 105 on both sides of the fins and between the fins, where the height of the trench filler layer 135 reaches to about the bottom of the first layer 110.

FIGS. 8A, 8B and 8C illustrates a cross section of the different devices formed at separate regions on the same substrate 105, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. FIGS. 8A, 8B, and 8C illustrate the completed devices after further processing steps. FIG. 8A illustrates the replacement of the first layer 110 with a bottom dielectric isolation (BDI) layer 145. The BDI layer 145 is formed by selectively removing the sacrificial first layer 110 SiGe (Ge=50-70%) and replacing it with the BDI material. The BDI layer 145 can be comprised of, for example, oxide, a low-k dielectric such as SiBCN, SiOCN, SiOC, or a combination thereof. The first layer 110 can be selectively replaced over the second layer 115 because of the difference of the percentage of Ge in the layers. The second layer 115, the fourth layer 116, and the sixth layer 117 are replaced with a multi-layer gate stack 140. The multi-layer gate stack 140 comprises an insulative gate dielectric and at least one conductive layer over the gate dielectric material and encloses each of the third layer 120, the fifth layer 121, and the seventh layer 122. The multi-layer gate stack 140 is comprised of a high-k metal gate material.

The overall height H4 of the nanosheet device, is the height from the bottom of the trench filler layer 135 to the top of the device (e.g., the top of seventh layer 122). As illustrated by FIG. 8B the top surface of the substrate 105 is exposed by the removal of the first layer 110. The top surface of the substrate 105 should be undamaged from all the prior processing steps since the first layer 110 acted as a sacrificial protection layer. The first layer 110 and any of the gate metal 140 that was formed in the 2^(nd) region has been removed to expose the top of the substrate 105. The height H5 of the electrostatic discharge device in the 2^(nd) region is less than the height H4 of the nanosheet device in the 1^(st) region. The difference in the height H4 and the height H5 is the height H7 to the top of the nanosheet device (e.g., the top of the seventh layer 122).

FIG. 8C illustrates that the first layer 110 in each of the fins was replaced by the BDI layer 145 and that the multi-layer gate stack 140 has enclosed the fins. The fin device illustrated by FIG. 8C, can exhibit bottom dielectric isolation of at least the gate region or both the gate and Source-Drain regions. The height H6 of the fins should have a height that is substantially the same as the height H4 as the nanosheet device in the 1^(st) region.
